Watch Conan insult Houston to a cheering Dallas audience

Conan O’Brien is filming his late night talk show, Conan in Dallas this week, and to curry favor with the local audience, the gangly, red-headed host has been taking some pot shots at Houston. On Monday’s show, Conan made a joke or two at the Astros’ expense, but things got personal last night when Conan sang a song about Dallas that ended with an ad hominem attack on Houston. Or as the website describes it: “Conan wrote a catchy tune that celebrates his favorite city, Dallas, and lays waste to the hell that is Houston.”

Watch the video here:

If you can’t watch the video, Conan sings some factoids about Dallas’s history and climate that were researched on Wikipedia. When Andy Richter interjects that the National Museum of Funeral History is in Dallas, Conan corrects him that the museum is actually in Houston to the boos of the crowd. Conan then goes on to say that Wikipedia says Houston is, “650 square miles, all of it comprised of burning garbage piles. Houston’s smog is the 8th worst in the USA, and it’s home to every serial killer that’s alive today. It’s industries are known for pollutin’, and it’s the favorite U.S. city of Vladimir Putin. And here’s my last line, and I don’t mean to be callous, but if you drive near Houston just keep going to Dallas.”
